In this paper, we develop a multichannel blind source separation algorithm based on a beamspace transform and the multichannel non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) method. The NMF algorithm is a famous algorithm which is used to solve the source separation problems. In this paper, we consider a beamspace-time-frequency domain data model for multichannel NMF method, and enhance the conventional method using a beamspace transform. Our decomposition algorithm is applied to audio source separation, using a dataset from the international Signal Separation Evaluation Campaign 2010 (SiSEC 2010) for evaluation.

GIS WEB 맵 서버는 다중 사용자 환경에서 신속한 요구 처리와 다양한 서비스를 수행해야 하며, 특히 맵 화면 표출 요구에 대한 신속한 처리 여부가 주요한 관건이 된다. 그러나 WEB 환경 하에서 기존의 공간 DBMS나 공간 파일시스템을 기반으로 대용량의 공간 데이터를 처리하기에는 만족할 만한 성능을 보장할 수가 없다. 따라서 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 GIS WEB 맵 서버만을 위해 특화된 공간 저장소 형식이 필요하며, 이러한 공간 저장소는 임의의 맵 영역 데이터를 신속하게 제공할 수 있어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 공간 데이터를 영역별로 관리하는 계층적 형태의 공간 저장소(가칭 'SB-저장소') 구조를 제시하여, 신속한 맵 화면 처리가 요구되는 GIS WEB 서버에 효율적인 맵 데이터 서비스 또는 맵 이미지 서비스를 제공하기 위한 토대를 마련하고자 한다.

In this paper, we propose a method to segment a color image into several meaningful regions. We suppose that the meaningful region has a set of colors with high frequency in the color image. To find these colors, the color image is represented as several sets of color points in RGB space. And when we use the density of points defined in this method, color belonging to a dense region of color points in RGB space refers to the color that appeared frequently in the image. Eventually, we can find meaningful regions by looking for regions with high density of color points using our level set function in RGB space. However, if a meaningful region does not have a contiguous region of the sufficient size in the image, this is not a meaningful region but meaningless region. Thus, the pixels in the meaningless region are assigned to the biggest meaningful region belonging to its neighboring pixels in the color image. Our method divides the color image into meaningful regions by applying the density of color points to level set function in RGB space. This is different from the existing level set method that is defined only in 2D image.

We propose adaptive algorithms computing the coefficients of spatial domain predictors. The method uses the LMS approach to compute the coefficients of the predictors realized by using the TDL(tapped-delay-line) and the ESC (escalator) structures. The predictors to be presented differ from the conventional ones in the sense that the relevant weights are updated such that the sum of the mean squared values of the forward and the backward prediction errors is minimized. Using the coefficients of such spatial domain predictors yields improved linear predictive spatial spectrums. The algorithms are applied to the problems of estimating incident angles of multiple narrow-band signals received by a linear array of sensors. Simulation results demonstrating the performances of the proposed methods are presented.

사용자들의 특성에 맞게 개인화되고 세분화된 위치 기반 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 방대한 이동객체의 위치 이력 데이터로부터 유용한 패턴을 추출하기 위한 시간 패턴 탐사가 필요하다. 기존의 시간 패턴 탐사 기법들은 이동 객체의 시간에 따른 공간 속성들의 변화를 충분히 고려하지 못하거나, 시공간 속성을 동시에 고려한 패턴 탐사는 가능하나 제약을 가진 공간 정보를 포함하는 패턴 탐사 문제에는 적용하기 어렵다. 따라서 이동 객체의 위치 이력 데이터들에 대한 시공간적 속성들을 동시에 고려하여 다양한 이동 패턴들 중 공간 제약을 만족하는 패턴들을 추출하기 위한 새로운 이동 패턴 탐사 기법이 요구된다. 이러한 패턴 탐사 기법의 개발을 위해서는 상세 수준의 위치 이력 데이터들을 공간 영역 정보 형태로 변환하는 위치 일반화 접근법이 필요하다. 이에 본 논문에서는 객체의 위치값과 공간 영역간의 위상 관계를 고려하여 이동 객체의 위치 속성에 대한 공간영역으로의 일반화 방법을 제안한다. 이동 객체의 상세 수준의 위치 정보에서는 의미있는 패턴을 찾기가 어렵기 때문에 데이터 전처리 과정을 통해 일반화된 데이터 집합을 형성함으로써 효율적인 이동 객체의 시간 패턴 마이닝을 유도할 수 있다.

Mean shift procedure is applied for the data points in the joint spatial-range domain and achieves a high quality. However, a color image is segmented differently according to the inputted spatial parameter or range parameter and the demerit is that the image is broken into many small regions in case of the small parameter. In this paper, to improve this demerit, we propose the method that groups similar regions using region merging method for over-segmented images. The proposed method converts a over-segmented image in RGB color space into in HSI color space and merges similar regions by hue information. Here, to preserve edge information, the proposed method use by merging constraints to decide whether regions is merged or not. After then, we merge the regions in RGB color space for non-processed regions in HSI color space. Experimental results show the superiority in region's segmentation results.

Various multimedia systems have been developed and their application areas widely proliferate. Thus, the interoperability is getting important among various networks and devices. The video transcoding is a technology to solve this interoperability problem among various coding standards. Transcoding can be defined as the conversion of one compressed coded data to another. In this paper, MPEG-2 to MPEG-4 transcoder in the spatial domain is compared with that in the DCT domain. The transcoder is very useful when a video sequence that is originally encoded for digital TV, DVD or satellite broadcasting is served in mobile environment. In order to compare two transcoders, all modules except motion compensation and down sampling are implemented identically. In addition, both transcoders do not search for motion vector. Instead, the decoded information is reused to the encoder. The experimental results show that the transcoder in the spatial domain is usually better than that in the DCT domain with respect to PSNR (Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio), bitrate and execution time.

In this paper, an algorithm using wavelet transform for detecting a cut that is a radical scene transition point, and fade and dissolve that are gradual scene transition points is proposed. The conventional methods using wavelet transform for this purpose is using features in both spatial and frequency domain. But in the proposed algorithm, the color space of an input image is converted to YUV and then luminance component Y is transformed in frequency domain using 2-level lifting. Then, the histogram of only low frequency subband that may contain some spatial domain features is compared with the previous one. Edges obtained from other higher bands can be divided into global, semi-global and local regions and the histogram of each edge region is compared. The experimental results show the performance improvement of about 17% in recall and 18% in precision and also show a good performance in fade and dissolve detection.

Deinterlacing is a method to convert interlaced video, including two fields (even and odd), to progressive video. It can be divided into spatial and temporal methods. The deinterlacing method in the spatial domain can easily be hardware-implemented, but yields image degradation if information about the deinterlaced pixel does not exist in the same field. On the other hand, the method in the temporal domain yields a deinterlaced image with higher quality but uses more memory, and hardware implementation is more difficult. Furthermore, the deinterlacing method in the temporal domain degrades image quality when motion is not estimated properly. The proposed method is for deinterlacing in the spatial domain. It uses several deinterlacing methods according to statistical characteristics in neighboring pixel locations. In this procedure, the proposed method uses the C4.5 algorithm, a typical classification algorithm based on entropy for choosing optimal methods from among the candidates. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms previous deinterlacing methods in terms of objective and subjective image quality.

This paper aims to explain the changes of social spatiality in rural areas as seen on a sloping scale in reference of population structure and utilization of territorial assets. Guessing from the population characteristics of rural communities and farming activities in Hwangsan village of Uichon-Myeon, Geochang-Gun and Hanam village of Chogye-Myeon, Hapchon-Gun, it will become a society characterized by super-aged intensification and large-scale crop cultivation. Deokgok-Myeon and Yulji village of Hapchon-Gun are required to intake outside residents. They have to understand the complementary cooperation and become conscious of the relationship between existing residents and relocated people in Yudong village of Yokji-Myeon, Tonyoung-Si. Due to a decreasing population and the phenomena of the 'super-aged', the efforts to revive the spatial function as a living and working space while utilizing territorial assets could be challenged in these case study regions.
